How did you make that? How did you get it to taste like real deviled eggs? Is that magic? These are just a few of the questions you’ll hear from friends and family. Unlike traditional deviled eggs that use the egg yolk, which contains cholesterol and saturated fat, these are made with organic tofu, which doesn’t have either. Don’t forget to hide a few away in the fridge for yourself so they don’t all disappear!

The bites are yummy on their own as an on-the-patio or porch appetizer. When paired with the cooling and refreshing Cucumber Raita — made with crisp cucumbers and creamy cashews — it all comes together and they positively pop with flavor! Not to mention, you’ll be looking out for your dinner companions’ health by offering them an appetizer that will boost their fiber and phytonutrient intake!

This environmentally friendly, cruelty-free and healthy whole-food version of a charcuterie board is everything you’d ever want in a plant-based appetizer: crunchy crackers, creamy cashew cheese, savory tempeh bacon, and sour, pungent, sweet and bitter olives. It’s a party for all your tastebuds!

The beauty of Herbed Cashew Cheese is that you can use whichever herbs you have on hand or prefer to use based on your flavor preferences. A few delicious and nutrition combinations include parsley and oregano, rosemary and thyme or cilantro and dill. You could also split the cashew cream base in half and create two different herbed cheeses — just for fun!

These muffin-like bites use only pureed banana as a sweetener and can be prepped in just minutes. Super for on-the-go breakfast, but also a great evening snack! Not to mention, the fiber in the oatmeal and bananas will keep you satiated and energized.

Take the fiesta to-go with this mason jar taco salad. Not only are mason jar salads easy to assemble, but they’re also very pretty! Antioxidant-rich salsa, protein-packed beans, carotenoid-containing corn, fiber-loaded lettuce, and monounsaturated fat-filled avocado create a flavorful and oh so nutritious salad in a jar!

This Lemony Chickpea Lentil Soup tempts you with warm, earthy tones of cumin and thyme. It’s easy to make, and yields extra portions for leftovers or freezing. Pair this smooth-yet-rustic soup with whole-grain bread or brown rice and a light salad. Well-being warning: sipping on this soup throughout the year might just help you feel energized, healthy, and full-of-life all year long.

More of the savory breakfast type? Then you’re going to love this plant-based version of sausage and eggs! Lentil “Sausage” Scramble is super satisfying and will keep you energized all morning long with plenty of plant-based protein from the tofu and lentils, and abundant healing nutrients in the garlic, turmeric, cumin, fennel and sage.
